Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Turkey Burger Patties

    In a bowl, combine the ground turkey, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until just combined. Form the mixture into two equal patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Turkey Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the turkey bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    Fry the Shallots

    In the same skillet, add sliced shallots and fry until golden brown and crispy. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Cook the Turkey Patties

    In the same skillet, add a little oil if needed and cook the turkey patties over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 165°F).

  5. 5

    Prepare the Citrus Aioli

    In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Stir until smooth.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the wheat buns, then spread the citrus aioli on the bottom half. Place the turkey patty on top, followed by the fried shallots, turkey bacon, pickles, baby arugula, and sliced tomato. Cap with the top half of the bun.
